Advantech ADAM-5511 Manual page 75

Analog input/output modules are calibrated when you receive them.
However, calibration is sometimes required. No screwdriver is neces-
sary because calibration is done in software with calibration parame-
ters stored in the ADAM-5000 analog I/O module's onboard EEPROM.
The ADAM-5510 system comes with the ADAM utility software that
supports calibration of analog input and analog output. Besides the
calibration that is carried out through software, the modules incorpo-
rate automatic Zero Calibration and automatic Span Calibration at
bootup or reset.
Modules: ADAM-5017, 5017H, 5018
1. Apply power to the ADAM-5510 system that the analog input
module is plugged into and let it warm up for about 30 minutes
2. Assure that the module is correctly installed and is properly
configured for the input range you want to calibrate. You can do
this by using the ADAM utility software. (Refer to Chapter 5)
3. Use a precision voltage source to apply a span calibration voltage
to the module's V0+ and V0- terminals. (See Tables 4-8 and 4-9 for
reference voltages for each range.)
